Transcript of Bodies: variation in the force of existing

BODIESTRANSITIONS & MIXTURES

BODY IS NOTINTRINSICALLY

▪ Spatial structure

▪ Functional unit

These are effects, expressions of a body, in relation to other bodies.

A BODY CAN BEANYTHING

Animal, body of sounds, a mind, an idea, linguistic corpus, social body, a collectivity.“

▪ Individuality in continuous variation of force of existing

Permanence of a certain ratio of motion and rest through all the changes which affect all the parts, taken to infinity, of the body under consideration.

INDIVIDUALITYFORM

▪ Affectus involved in affections

▪ Nature as possibilities of mixture

▪ Composite to infinity

BODY

My eye, for example, my eye and the relative constancy of my eye are defined

by a certain relation of movement and rest through all the modifications of the

diverse parts of my eye; but my eye itself, which already has an infinity of parts,

is one part among the parts of my body, the eye in its turn is a part of the face

and the face, in its turn, is a part of my body, etc...thus you have all sorts of

relations which will be combined with one another to form an individuality

of such and such degree.

I will light your cigarette with a star that has fallen from the sky.Breathe in, breathe out,I love the way you move.Don't let anyone tell you any different tonight.You are beauty,you are class,you showed it allbut you still kept a little piece back just for me.A little piece back just for me.Just for me.

Competition between alternative production. Implemented by mutually inhibiting neurons that increase their activity until a threshold is reached resulting in the ‘ignition’ of a single outcome.
